a needy partner

she is a needy partner
demanding surplus attention
at first her victim loves her intensity
her enthusiasm is overwhelming complimentary
but then he begins feeling smothered and stuck
her neediness feels dangerously possessive
he is lucky if he can crawl out of her web
living under a rock with a snake would be more pleasant
